ORTIZ Completes Triathlon: "FLOYD, You Ready For This?"

[Toney Loc]

Lol a marathon after all that?

Yea, my fault. I think it's 13.1 miles.

[GrandpaBernard]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this really doesn't translate to the ring that much....how many great champions were triathletes during their careers? I would rather hear that he is working on a gameplan since he doesn't have one yet according to what he said on the face-off...

Frazier didn't perform so well in other physical activities, but he kicked too much AZZ in the ring.

Ortiz can go play as much basketball and soccer as he wants. FLoyd gon still kill him.

Next 24/7

Floyd: I do a marathon everyday walking around the big boy mansion.

Floyd a G.

24/7...and a whole lot more.

George Lopez
CNN
People Magazine
etc

where do you get that info?? floyd and George Lopez??

[Gino Ros]

Why don't fighters decline that crap? Do they get paid to be on Lopez, CNN, and so on?

Ortiz is probably getting $2-4 per PPV household. So it benefits him financially.

For example, when Khan refused to let Zab share in the UK PPV's, Zab refused to talk to British journalists.

That's impressive but not that impressive. A thug ass triathlon is a 2 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and a 26.2 mile run.

LMFAO! Jajaaja

For this fight, HBO is using more of their sister properties to promote the fight. So, TBS, CNN, and the TW-owned magazines.

Golden Boy hires Kelly Swanson (Swanson Communications) for much of this.

Actually, MMA'er Nick Diaz says that his triathlon training gives him his in-ring stamina.

Think about it: it's running and swimming, which boxers do anyway. And throw in some biking (which Sergio Martinez does).

Can't hurt...right?

[Jack Napier]

big deal
you're still gonna get fucked up Vic :laugh:

[uoykcuf]

Bet you Maidana couldn't do that Triathlon, but he could still beat Ortiz's ass.
